i do deposits twice a month

I get wire now or paypal.
I hate checks because here in sweden they take $25 fee for every check from USA

I'd like to take this time to say Nasty Dollars kicks ass... And the people too... I found my first ever check about a month ago and obviously it had expired. They rushed me out another one 2 days later. It was only for $35.00. What a nice group of people.

Then some time last month I realised I didn't get my check for the pay period the day it normally comes, mainly I noticed it because it came about 4 days late in a FedEX envelope. So when I opened the envelope they had enclosed the original envelope too, I had screwed up my address when I moved and they took the time to track me down and send it to the correct one, then send the check via FedEX overnight.

That is some customer care... Perhaps they were bought by American Express because they rock too...

Anyway...

I generally let them pile up for a while because the bank isn't very close to my house and it is the opposite way of everything else in town.

she better gets to know me better, she'll have to get used to my face now ;)

I used to slack on depositing checks. My grandpa who owns rental properties and is a very wise man told me to always cash checks as soon as you get them. I would make fun of him for going to the bank every day. THEN a certain company had some issues and I had a 15k check that I couldnt cash. I was very annoyed and had to wait for several months until the issues were cleared up but it was my own damn fault for being lazy.

So the moral is....listen to my grandpa!

Usually after getting them in the mail, my office looks like Task Force 21 uses it for MOUT training, so if I left a check in there, it will get lost fast.

We use Epassporte
and love it :thumbsup

As the banks charge a fee per batch of checks, I take them once per month. If I'm not busy, once every fortnight.

Once a month, most of my money comes with wires and I hate cashing checks

I must be lucky then, my canadian US$ account doesnt have service charges. It only costs me money if I want to get a US draft from my US account. I can transfer the money to canadian funds or withdraw the cash (assuming my bank has the paper on hand) for my US vacations. I go through First Calgary (local credit union). Works great for me.
Only drawback is my Debit Mastercard wont withdraw from the US account and I cant get one that will. So I have to pay hosting fees etc from my canadian account and transfer funds over from the US account to even it out. Shrug.
Oh ya, my checks arent held at all either. :thumbsup :winkwink:

I take the wire payment method whenever I can get it

Col!n - are you Colin ?
I don't know any of you, but Colin had a good reputation :)

What is the traffic deal you are talking about in your sig?
Is that really SE traffic? How it is delivered and what is the price?

every two weeks... Try to cut down on check as mutch as possible. At least no checks less than 500$. I have to wait for like 5 minutes for the paperwork/check so no little checks for me!

you are talking about Colin Delia, he would never move to canada :)

I have to send any actual checks back to my US bank account so I wait until they are at $2k and then overnight them.

I would, but I dont like to have to pay to get my money. :winkwink:
